    This document discusses the target audience and rating of the film "The Unburdened Mind". It received a 15 rating from the BBFC due to violent and bloody scenes. The film aims to attract audiences ages 15 to mid-40s. Focus groups with 16-17 year olds provided feedback on the opening sequence that helped shape it for their target age group. As the film is about a psychopathic killer, it would not be suitable for those under 15 due to its violent content and narrative. The victim in the opening sequence was female, which is a conventional choice that may appeal to both male and female audiences.

    By Melissa Hernan-Doyle

    The BBFC rating of our film The Unburdened Mind is

    a 15 due to violence and bloody scenes. The film itself


    it aimed at audiences from 15 to mid 40s depending on
    what interests that have but suitable for people in this
    age range to watch. We have purposely aimed this film
    at a large audience so more than one age group is
    attracted to it.

    We made questionnaires with multiple choice

    question as well as open questions to give to people


    aged 15 and over to see their feedback and what they
    expect to see in an opening sequence and what they
    would like to see.

    We also had a focus group of 16 and 17 year olds talking

    about our opening sequence and they gave us feedback


    on what they liked and didnt like, what they thought
    about the music and titles. We found this useful
    because we are aiming our film and people from their
    age group so getting feedback from them helped us for
    our film/opening sequence fit our target audience.

    This movie is about a psychopathic killer so would not

    be suitable for viewers under the age of 15 as it contains


    violence, bloody scene, tension as well as a narrative
    that would not appeal to them.

    The only person in our opening sequence was the

    victim, we did not show the protagonist so we could


    not compare our character to other films. During
    investigating other thriller/crime opening sequences,
    we did find out that the main character remained
    anonymous till further on. Also in our focus group
    they did also say that it was not necessary to reveal the
    protagonist and keeping it hidden created more
    mystery.

    The victim of our film is a woman, in a crime/thriller

    film this is very conventional and stereotypical but


    relating it to real life matters it is more woman than
    men who are targeted for murder, kidnapping or rape.
    Also, these type of films almost always appeal to men,
    so having female characters such as the victim, may
    attract just as much woman as men.
